Hurricane Milton's impact on Florida won't cause major losses for catastrophe bond investors, portfolio managers say. Insurance companies still face significant losses, but cat bond investors aren't eyeing the worst-case scenario. AdvertisementThe impact of Hurricane Milton on Florida is unlikely to trigger massive losses for catastrophe bond investors. The losses for cat bond investors, therefore, might only be in the low-single digits. This will drive an increase in risk premiums, leading to higher return expectations for cat bond investors moving forward," Steiger said.

“The study tested whether or not reducing the amount of acid in our diet reduces the kidney disease- and heart disease-related complications of high blood pressure,” he said. “We’ve known this for a long time but it’s good to have less kidney disease added to the benefits,” she said. Eating more fruits and veggies promotes heart and kidney health, especially in people with hypertension, a new study found. Medication intervention is still an important part of managing blood pressure, kidney disease and heart disease, Wesson said. “A largely, but not necessarily exclusively, plant-based diet is demonstrably associated with overall good health, reduced chronic disease prevalence — kidney disease too — and premature mortality,” Nestle said.

The risk for dementia dropped by 20%, however, for people who replaced that small daily serving of processed red meat with a daily serving of nuts and legumes. Processed red meats such as bacon, sausage, hot dogs and deli meats often contain higher levels of sodium, nitrates and saturated fat. Each additional serving of processed red meat raised riskAn abstract of the study, which is under review for publication, was presented Wednesday at the 2024 Alzheimer’s Association International Conference in Philadelphia. Red meat intake is limited. Red meat, especially processed red meat as seen here, is linked to an unhealthy heart and brain.

The movement is in stark contrast to Croatia’s recent past, when it was part of the former Yugoslavia, a Communist-run country that protected abortion rights in its constitution 50 years ago. As a result, many women have traveled to neighboring Slovenia for an abortion over the years. Pushed forward by a women’s organization born out of World War II, the right to abortion was later included in Yugoslavia’s constitution. Elsewhere in the former Yugoslavia, Serbia and Slovenia have included the freedom to choose whether to have children in their constitutions. Bosnia’s women can legally obtain abortion during the first 10 weeks of pregnancy, though economic impediments exist in the impoverished, post-war country.

The settlement dates to the Stone Age, a time researchers once considered too unsophisticated for such structures. Originally, archaeologists believed similar settlements were only about 3,000 years old, Archaeology magazine reported. The Neolithic settlement is one of the oldest known fortified structures in the world and was constructed hundreds of years earlier than most other similar structures. Researchers long considered more mobile hunter-gatherers incapable of building such sophisticated structures. "The discovery challenges stereotypes of such societies as simple and mobile, revealing their ability to create sophisticated structures," Schreiber told Newsweek .

A video of a woman burning a paper French flag during a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Morocco in October 2023 has been falsely shared as a scene taking place in Paris. French President Emmanuel Macron visited Israel on Oct. 24, expressing solidarity with Israel and condemning the militant Islamic Palestinian group Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel. Moroccan outlet Tanja News TV uploaded the video (archived) circulating online to YouTube on Oct. 24 stating that it showed the French flag being burned outside the French Consulate in Tangier. A building with green and black signage displaying the name of Morocco-based bank BMCI that is seen in the video is located on Tangier’s Place de France, opposite the French consulate. The video shows a pro-Palestinian demonstration outside the French consulate in Tangier, Morocco, not a pro-Palestinian protest in Paris.

And now Ben Hammou faces another blow as the German government moves to end pandemic-era tax breaks for the hospitality industry. The fiscally hawkish FDP party, which has control of the finance ministry in the three-way ruling coalition, backs letting the tax break expire, calculating that it would cost 3.3 billion euros ($3.5 billion) to keep it going in 2024. Many restaurants operate on tight margins, which makes them quite sensitive to tax increases. In Spain, Italy and France, the VAT on restaurants is at 10%, considerably lower than the expected 19% in Germany from 2024. The question is whether German restaurants are still struggling or have recovered well enough from the pandemic to withstand having the tax break removed, according to Tomas Dvorak, senior economist at Oxford Economics.

"Many people spend between six and eight hours a day on Zoom calls, which means in general, unless you have a walking desk, you're sitting for an extended period of time," says Kira Stokes, a celebrity trainer and founder of Kira Stokes Fitness. "[Bridges] actually work on hip extension, which is the opposite of hip flexion, and they get your glutes engaged," Stokes says. "What I hear a lot of as a trainer is, since Covid when Zoom calls really became a thing, there's been a real increase in low-back pain." Doing these exercises without a band is also possible, but the band gives you more of a challenge by adding resistance. Postural exercises After activating your glutes, Stokes says doing postural exercises is a good way to reset your posture after sitting for a long time.

Why It Matters: Germany has long neglected military spending. Despite intense pressure from the United States, Germany last spent 2 percent of its G.D.P. on defense in 1991, a year after the reunification of the former East and West German nations, according to statistics from the World Bank. The United States is using incentives, including tax breaks, to lure businesses in the green energy and technology sectors. “Germany is increasingly falling behind when it comes to investment and location decisions,” said Tanja Gönner, general director of the German Federation of Industries.

COPENHAGEN, May 3 (Reuters) - Danish brewer Carlsberg (CARLb.CO) has reached a settlement with German authorities and agreed to pay a 50 million-euro ($55 million) fine over the alleged formation of a cartel more than a decade ago. It said it refuted the allegations but had settled in order to focus on its core business of brewing beer. "We confirm that Carlsberg Deutschland Holding GmbH has reached a settlement in this case, which has been ongoing for 11 years and required an enormous amount of time and financial resources," Carlsberg's head of communications, Tanja Frederiksen, said in a statement. "We still strongly disagree with the charges and maintain our innocence, but we have taken this decision in order to be able to fully focus again on the future of Carlsberg Deutschland Holding GmbH," Frederiksen said. The case was concluded on Tuesday at the Düsseldorf Higher Regional Court, Carlsberg said.

Experts estimate that about half of the German electric vehicles registered in the United States are leased. While the scale of the U.S. subsidies has attracted most attention, the EU has large potential resources of its own. THE REAL PROBLEM"The amounts of subsidies in Europe are in line or even more than those in the United States, that is not the problem," said one senior European Union official. "The real problems are the incentives to make firms move production to the United States," said the official, referring to the local content requirements. To ensure Europe can compete with the United States, the European Commission on Wednesday proposed measures including loosening EU state aid rules and repurposing existing EU funds.

“The Seattle experience really solidified that thought for us, that this was something we all needed,” said Ms. Meredith, 43, an author and freelance writer. The younger Mr. Meredith spent his formative years in Jackson, Miss., and later did graduate work at the University of San Diego. “We loved the grittiness, the sunshine, and the diversity,” Ms. Meredith said. “Initially I think we were dumbstruck — awe-struck,” Ms. Meredith said. And they were willing to exhaust the Oakland market before they considered looking anywhere else.
The U.S. central bank has already raised interest rates four times this year, for a total of 2.25 percentage points. As the federal funds rate rises, the prime rate does as well, and credit card rates follow suit. Student loans The interest rate on federal student loans taken out for the 2022-2023 academic year already rose to 4.99%, up from 3.73% last year and 2.75% in 2020-2021. It won't budge until next summer: Congress sets the rate for federal student loans each May for the upcoming academic year based on the 10-year Treasury rate. Of course, anyone with existing education debt should check whether they are eligible for federal student loan forgiveness.
